Freight charges, assessorial charges, surcharges or other charges named
in this Tariff and in governed NSAs, including advanced charges, may be
prepaid or collect (see NOTE 1) at origin or destination, SBJ to the
provisions named herein.  However, regardless of whether B/L payment
status is prepaid or collect, the Shipper, his duly authorized Freight F
orwarder, Broker, the Consignee and the Beneficial Cargo Owner shall be,
and will remain, jointly and severally liable for all unpaid charges
and freight, including but not limited to, any sums advanced or
disbursed by the Carrier for the account of the cargo.  Further any
payment of freight or other charges to a freight forwarder, broker or
any other party other than directly to Carrier shall be not deemed
payment to the Carrier, unless and until such payment has been advanced
to Carrier.
     
NOTE 1:  Shipments of the following commodities MUST be
 PREPAID in all instances:  Household Goods; Personal Effects
     
a. All freight and additional charges named in this Tariff and in
   a governed NSA are due and considered earned upon receipt of
   the cargo by the originating Carrier, or his agent, and shall
   be paid to the Carrier without discount or deduction,
   whether the ship and/or cargo is lost or not lost,
   transportation is interrupted or abandoned, whether the
   cargo is damaged or ruined, or whether packages or
   containers are delivered empty or partly empty at destination.
     
b. Rates and charges named in this Tariff and in a governed NSA
   are quoted in U.S. Currency and have been determined with due
   consideration to the relationship of U.S Currency to the
   other currencies involved.  In the event of any material
   deterioration in the exchange value of U.S. Currency,
   Carrier reserves the right, upon publication herein, to
   adjust the rates and charges named in this Tariff or in a
   governed NSA to remove any adverse effect by publication of
   a Rule in this Tariff in conformity with the U.S.
   Shipping Act of 1984, as amended, and the regulations of
   the Federal Maritime Commission issued pursuant thereto.
     
c. When freight and other charges named in this Tariff and in
   a governed NSA are paid in foreign countries, Carrier will
   accept payment in a foreign currency provided it is freely
   convertible.  When payment is effected in other than U.S.
   Currency, currency conversion shall be calculated on the
   basis of the highest official bank selling rate of exchange
   as quoted on the official exchange for the currency
   involved, on the day shipment is tendered to originating
   Carrier.
     
d. The payment status of a B/L may NOT be changed once
   transportation service of cargo has commenced (i.e.
   "prepaid" shipments cannot be changed to "collect"
   shipments and likewise "collect" shipments cannot be
   changed to "prepaid" shipments) without the express
   approval of the Carrier.
     
e. Carrier or its duly authorized agent, will, upon request
   of the Shipper, Freight Forwarder, Consignee or
   Beneficial Cargo Owner, extend credit to the party
   listed in the B/L as responsible for the payment of
   freight and charges, in amounts not to exceed freight,
   assessorial, terminal and/or advanced charges.  The
   credit period shall be 30 (thirty) days from the date
   of delivery of cargo in the case of collect shipments or
   from the date of originating Carrier's cargo receipt in
   the case of prepaid shipments.
     
   If freight or other charges are NOT paid within the
   credit period specified above, the Carrier may cancel
   the delinquent party's credit privileges after which
   time ALL freight and assessorial charges applying on
   shipments moving for the account of such party MUST be
   paid in cash, cashier's check or money order at the
   time, or prior to the time, cargo is tendered to
   originating Carrier for transportation.
     
   If full payment of all freight and additional charges is
   not received within the credit period specified above,
   Carrier will assess an additional charge of 1% (one
   percent) of all past due freight and charges per each 30
   day period freight and/or charges remain unpaid, which
   charge shall be in addition to all other applicable
   charges.
    
   At any time after expiration of the credit period
   specified above, if any party responsible for the
   payment of charges fails or refuses to pay lawful
   freight and/or other charges due as specified above,
   Carrier shall be entitled to recover all collection
   costs incurred, including but not limited to, reasonable
   collection agency fees, attorney's fees and court costs.
